We have been learning about... SETTINGS
Date: 14th Oct 2020 @ 2:12pm
This week we have been learning about settings. We read the story of Cinnamon and the tiger. At the end of the story they went into the jungle on an adventure together. The children in Class 6 have loved linking their Science learning of Living things and habitats and thinking about how this will help them create their setting this week.
We created setting pyramids and used expanded noun phrases to help describe the setting; the jungle.

This week we have been reading the book Cinnamon in English. The children created some beautiful pyramid scenes and added in some fantasic descriptions. They included expanded noun phrases, similes, alliteration and onomatopoeia. We are so proud of their learning!!
Here are a few examples of their amazing jungle scenes.

What we have been learning about this week in class 2! (WB 5.10.20)
Date: 9th Oct 2020 @ 6:18pm
This week in class 2 we have been learning about the story ‘The Runaway Chapatti’. The children all recognised that it was very similar to one of our favourite traditional tales ‘The Gingerbread Man’. The children have all sequenced the story and retold the story in their own words to an adult. Why don’t you ask your child if they can retell it to you!
All of the children worked with Miss Seddon to make their own chapattis and we really enjoyed eating them. Zaynah said after eating it all up that we had all turned into the tiger because we had eaten all of the chapattis just like in the story!
In maths this week we have continued our learning into numbers and the children have each made their own number line to 10. I was very impressed with the children’s numeral recognition.
Our super learning this week in Class 3
Date: 9th Oct 2020 @ 4:36pm
This week in Class 3 we have had such a fantastic week. In maths we have been looking at addition and using lots of different methods to help us soliving our number sentences.
In Literacy we have been reading the book 'The lonely beast.' Class 3 wrote some amazing descriptions all about him. We were SO impressed with the different adjectives they came up with.
During our Design and Technology lessons we have started looking at lever and slider toys. We had a go at playing with some of our own, and have even started to design our very own toys that we will make on Monday.
Have a look at some of our super designs. We can't wait to see the finished product, and to enjoy another super week working really hard!
What have Class 4 been up to this week?
Date: 9th Oct 2020 @ 4:12pm
This week in Class 4, we have been extremely busy developing our design and technology skills. We have learnt about levers and sliders and how these mechanisms can be used to make toys. We have had a go at making toys which uses either a lever or a slider. Have a look at some of our rabbits that pop out of a magician’s hat and the cars that drives along the road.
We have started designing our own toys and next week we will be making and evaluating them. We can’t wait to see what they will look like.

This week in Year 6 we have carried on our World War II learning. We thought about why children were evacuated during the war and what this would have felt like. We realised that some children will have enjoyed this experience whilst others will have just wanted to go home. We then wrote postcards in role as evacuees. After this, we looked at a range of propaganda posters. We discussed the messages from the posters and who the posters were aimed at. We used the propaganda posters as inspiration for our own posters. In English we have carried on the story of The Harmonica, focusing on writing descriptions. We have tried to include lots of descriptive features in our writing.
